AFN Network+ Events

We host events in person and online, bringing people with an interest in agri-food together to share insights, develop knowledge and create connections. These include:

  • Webinars, workshops and networking meetings
  • Our annual two day Big Tent event
  • An annual facilitated Crucible workshop for people interested in applying for scoping study grants. Participants develop project ideas, meet collaborators, work on proposals and receive grant-writing coaching.

Our events offer participants the chance to engage with researchers and food system stakeholders working for change in the agri-food system. Our webinars are all recorded and can be found in the resources section of the website.

Join the Network to receive our monthly newsletter and find out about upcoming events.
